2015-2016 Council Documents

After the October Full Council Meeting, the Parks Committee met to discuss recent proposals forwarded from the Seattle City Council regarding changes to laws concerning the Homeless camping in Parks. Due to the overwhelming support in the Parks Committee and the apparent deadline to express our views before the Oct. 14th City Council meeting, the Executive committee acted to send a letter expressing concerns on allowing such camping following the lines of reason expressed at the Parks Committee meeting.

Shortly after the June meeting, the QA Community Council learned of a determination of non-significance for a change being propsed by City Council Member Mike O'Brien. The Executive Committee discussed the issue in e-mail, and also reached out to the full board via e-mail to determine a course of action. The Exececutive Committee approved supporting the SEPA Appeal.

In this meeting, the Council approved endorsing three "Street Fund" projects, 1) requesting a study on arterials that connect QA to the rest of the city, 2) fixing the intersection at 15th Avenue West and West Gilman, and 3) fixing the intersection at Crockett Street & 1st Avenue N. The Council also approved a motion to use Neighborhood and Parks Street Fund originally designated for curbs on Bigelow to be used to study traffic and parking issues at QA Elementary.
